Page 7: Basic Performance
The measuring instrument level error cannot be said to really meet the specifications if measurement requires addition of a margin to the product test specification. Since specifications with added margin are severe, even genuinely passing products may sometimes be evaluated as failing due to this m...
Page 8: Basic Performance
Wide dynamic range dynamic range is a key specification for spectrum analyzers. Low displayed average noise level (danl) as well as high toi are important too. Low toi may cause distortion with high-level carrier signals. Inserting an attenuator can lower the carrier level but this has the effect of...
Page 9: Basic Performance
Improved level linearity conventional spectrum analyzers use an analog if and log amp to achieve good level accuracy at points near the log scale reference level, but the accuracy degrades at points that are further away. The ms2830a uses a digital if instead of a log amp, which supports measurement...
